Chapter 85: The Sea King's Invitation
Chapter 85: The Sea King's Invitation
Gavin stood on the deck, lost in thought. Daenerys walked over to him and whispered, "Gavin, could this be a trap?"
Gavin held her hand and comforted her: "Don't worry too much. Even if it is a trap, I have a way to deal with it."
At this time, Gavin was already exhausted after a night of fighting, and there was very little magic power left in his body. Even Chiying was so tired that he lay on the bow and fell asleep. Choosing to meet tomorrow morning was a helpless move.
That night, everyone on the Belleris had trouble falling asleep. The moonlight shone on the sea, making the waves sparkle, but it could not dispel the haze that shrouded people's hearts.
Outside the port, the Sea King's warships were still tightly blocked at the mouth of the canyon, with no signs of evacuation. The soldiers of Braavos on the dock were still standing firm, motionless, like silent statues.
The morning sun shone on the Belleris. Gavin walked out of the cabin and saw Chiying, who was full of energy. He was completely relieved.
However, he was still a little worried that Aquaman would do something desperate. Thinking of this, Gavin ordered Chiying to let the fire possess his body.
Then he turned back to the cabin, and Daenerys immediately came up to him and said with a worried look on her face: "Gavin, are you really going? This is too dangerous."
Gavin gently put his arm around her shoulders and comforted her, "Don't worry, dear. Since the Sea King has invited us, if I don't go, it would make us look cowardly. Besides, Blazing Shadow has recovered, and I am prepared for any situation."
Daenerys bit her lip, her worry still lingering: "I'll go with you..."
Gavin interrupted her and said with a smile: "Don't worry, even if there is an accident, I can get away at any time with Chiying. Besides, since the other party invited me, it is very likely that he does not intend to take action."
Daenerys knew she couldn't change Gavin's decision, so she could only nod and say, "Then you must be careful."
Gavin responded and walked off the boat with only two Blood Dragon Guards.
When Gavin stepped onto the dock, the soldiers suddenly became nervous and unconsciously tightened their weapons. However, none of them dared to act rashly and silently made way for Gavin. Gavin was calm and walked straight towards the direction of the Sea King's Palace.
Gavin once again stepped into the Sea King's Palace. Looking at the gloomy-looking Leige Antalion sitting on the throne, he bowed slightly and said, "Your Highness, Sea King, thank you for your invitation."
The Sea King sat on the throne and snorted heavily: "Gawen Belleris, I invited you to be my guest! But you let your dragons wreak havoc in Braavos and burned down the House of Black and White!"
Gavin stood up, looked at the Sea King calmly, and responded: "Your Highness, I have always abided by my duties in Braavos. However, as a guest, I was assassinated in Braavos, and you could not guarantee my safety. Naturally, I had to fight back."
Aquaman frowned and raised his voice, saying, "I have already promised to compensate you and guarantee your safety here!"
Gavin nodded and said, "I appreciate your kindness, His Majesty. But I want to know, after I leave Braavos, I will be assassinated by the Faceless Men again. What should I do? You cannot guarantee that the House of Black and White will give up the assassination. I can only solve the problem myself. As long as the problem is not solved, what happened last night will happen sooner or later."
The Sea King was speechless for a moment, then he argued: "The Black and White House..."
Gavin interrupted him and said firmly: "The House of Black and White may have its rules, but when my life is threatened, I must take action to protect myself." The Sea King frowned and raised his voice and said: "I have promised to compensate you! I will let you go to my treasure house and choose whatever you want, including Daenerys' compensation, you can take it together, but because of what you did in Braavos. After you have chosen the gift, please leave immediately. From today on, you and your fleet will never set foot in Braavos again!"
Gavin looked calm and responded, "Your Highness, Sea King, I have no intention of causing trouble here. Now that the problem has been solved, I will naturally leave."
The Sea King stared at Gavin sharply and said, "I hope you will keep your word, otherwise the wrath of Braavos will not be something you can bear."
Gavin bowed and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will keep my promise."
Aquaman waved his hand, signaling the end of the conversation.
Led by a water dancer, Gavin walked slowly along the deep corridor. On both sides of the corridor, there stood a fully armed guard every few steps, holding sharp spears in their hands, motionless like sculptures.
The closer they got to the treasury, the more solemn the atmosphere became. In front of the treasury gate, there were two teams of elite soldiers standing ready for battle. They were dressed in heavy armor, holding shields and swords, and exuded a terrifying aura.
The entrance to the treasury is two huge stone doors carved with ancient and mysterious patterns.
The Water Dancer walked up and said something to the soldiers, and then two soldiers pushed open the heavy stone door. With a dull sound, the interior of the treasure house appeared before Gavin's eyes.
"Sir Gawain, please follow me. According to His Highness's order, you only have one hour, and you can only take two things away, one to compensate you and the other to compensate the Targaryen princess." The water dancer on the side said solemnly.
Gavin nodded slightly and followed the water dancer into this mysterious and tempting treasure house.
The moment he stepped into the treasure house, Gavin was shocked by the scene before him.
Rows of tall display racks are arranged in an orderly manner, filled with all kinds of rare treasures.
On one shelf, there were several Valyrian steel swords, with the unique Valyrian steel pattern on the blades and the blades were extremely sharp. In the brocade box next to them, there were also several daggers made of Valyrian steel.
Not far away, there was a set of gorgeous armor made of pure gold. It still shone with golden brilliance under the dim light. The armor was inlaid with various gems, highlighting its extraordinary value.
In the corner of the treasury, there were piles of precious furs, including white wolf skins from the Far North and rare striped bear skins.
In the center of the treasure house, there is a huge crystal ball, which seems to be filled with mist and emits a faint light. Next to the crystal ball, several dragon egg fossils are quietly displayed, and the texture on the eggshell seems to tell an ancient story.
Going further in, Gavin saw huge dragon bone products piled there. There was also a row of mysterious books with metal covers and inlaid with gems. In addition, there were various exquisite crafts made of Valyrian steel, such as small sculptures, gorgeous ornaments, etc., each of which was exquisitely crafted.
